不仅如此，伴随着轰隆隆的声音传入耳朵，在广场的前部，居然升起了一个宝座。幼狮书盟章节
Moreover, the sound of thundering voices reached his ears. In front of the square, a throne had unexpectedly risen on an elevated jade platform, adorned with dragons and phoenixes, exuding a refined aura!
nà bǎo zuò shì zài yù shí tái jiē shàng de ， diāo lóng huì fèng ， xiǎn de jí wéi bù sú ！
那宝座是在玉石台阶上的，雕龙绘凤，显得极为不俗！
It was clear that this throne was prepared for the Grandmaster.
bú yòng shuō ， zhè yì shì wèi méng zhǔ zhǔn bèi de 。
不用说，这亦是为盟主准备的。
Beside the throne stood a team of strongmen.
bǎo zuò de páng biān ， hái zhàn zhe yī duì lì shì 。
宝座的旁边，还站着一队力士。
Each one was bald and barefoot, yet their bodies were incredibly robust. They did not emit any spiritual pressure, but they radiated an imposing presence.
rén rén guāng tóu chì zú ， shēn tǐ què shì qiáng zhuàng dào jí chù 。
人人光头赤足，身体却是强壮到极处。
Physical Cultivators!
tā men shēn shàng méi yǒu líng yā sàn fà ér chū ， què zì yǒu yī gǔ biāo hàn zhī qì 。
他们身上没有灵压散发而出，却自有一股彪悍之气。
"Please have a seat as Grandmaster!"
liàn tǐ shì ！
炼体士！
Someone in the crowd shouted out joyfully.
“ qǐng méng zhǔ jiù zuò ！”
“请盟主就坐！”
The voices soon became more frequent.
rén qún zhōng bù zhī shuí fā chū yī shēng huān hū 。
人群中不知谁发出一声欢呼。
Having defeated Wan Xiao Xianjun, treating Black Bear King as his servant, and making a name for himself in the cultivation world, Lin Xuan's reputation had reached unprecedented heights. It was only fitting that he be appointed as the Grandmaster of the Immortal Dao Alliance.
suí hòu ， shēng yīn yuè fā mì jí dào jí chù 。
随后，声音越发密集到极处。
A smile finally appeared on Lin Xuan’s lips, even if he did not care much about it, this scene still brought him a sense of accomplishment.
dǎ bài wàn xiǎo xiān jūn ， shì hēi xióng wáng wèi nú pú ， xiū xiān jiè zūn zhòng qiáng zhě ， lín xuān yī lián chuàn liàng yǎn de biǎo xiàn yǐ ràng tā de shēng wàng duī jī dào wú yǐ fù jiā de dì bù 。
打败万晓仙君，视黑熊王为奴仆，修仙界尊重强者，林轩一连串亮眼的表现已让他的声望堆积到无以复加的地步。
Lin Xuan took a deep breath and suddenly, a faint green glow enveloped his body. He flashed in an instant to the jade platform above, taking his seat gracefully.
zhòng wàng suǒ guī ， qǐng lín xuān jiù zhè méng zhǔ zhī wèi 。
众望所归，请林轩就这盟主之位。
"Salutations Grandmaster!"
lín xuān de zuǐ jiǎo biān zhōng yú lù chū le yī sī huān xǐ ， jiù suàn tā bù zài yì ， dàn cǐ qíng cǐ jǐng ， nà yě shì mán yǒu chéng jiù gǎn dì 。
林轩的嘴角边终于露出了一丝欢喜，就算他不在意，但此情此景，那也是蛮有成就感地。
The square was filled with a sea of cultivators bowing down. However, Wan Xiao Xianjun, Dong Yu Celestial Emperor, Black Phoenix Demoness, and other top-tier experts merely paid him a respectful nod.
lín xuān xī le kǒu qì ， hún shēn shàng xià qīng máng zhòu qǐ ， yí gè shǎn shuò ， biàn lái dào yù tái shàng kōng ， yú bǎo zuò zhī shàng ān rán jiù zuò 。
林轩吸了口气，浑身上下青芒骤起，一个闪烁，便来到玉台上空，于宝座之上安然就座。
Lin Xuan returned the gesture half-heartedly. As per his nature, he did not act arrogant; his demeanor was one of respect for others.
“ cān jiàn méng zhǔ ！”
“参见盟主！”
The scene that followed required no further elaboration as flattery poured in from all sides.
guǎng chǎng zhī shàng ， hēi yā yā yī piàn xiū shì bài fú ， dāng rán ， wàn xiǎo xiān jūn ， dōng yù xiān huáng ， hēi fèng yāo nǚ děng dǐng jí dà néng zhǐ shì xiàng lín xuān zuò le yí gè yī 。
广场之上，黑压压一片修士拜服，当然，万晓仙君，东裕仙皇，黑凤妖女等顶级大能只是像林轩作了一个揖。
Not only had Lin Xuan become the Grandmaster of the Immortal Dao Alliance, but his strength and bearing alone were enough to earn everyone's favor. Cultivating with such a powerful ally would bring countless benefits down the line, a truth known by all.
lín xuān yì duì zhe tā men hái le bàn lǐ 。
林轩亦对着他们还了半礼。
Music filled the air as maidservants began dancing while setting up a flowing feast. Various delicacies were laid out, though every cultivator present could dispense with food through cultivation techniques. However, in this joyous moment, it was only fitting to indulge themselves.
yǐ lín xuān de xìng gé ， zì rán bú huì zhāng yáng bá hù ， lǐ xián xià shì de qì dù ， zhè diǎn hái shì yǒu de 。
以林轩的性格，自然不会张扬跋扈，礼贤下士的气度，这点还是有的。
Even if they did not particularly enjoy the food, there were some spiritual wines and fruits on offer that would aid their cultivation.
jiē xià lái de chǎng miàn bù yòng duō shuō ， zhòng xiū shì yú cí cháo sòng 。
接下来的场面不用多说，众修士谀词潮送。
This rare opportunity was not one to be missed, and everyone eagerly partook in the feast, clinking glasses and chatting merrily.
qiě bù shuō lín xuān yǐ shì xiān dào méng méng zhǔ ， guāng shì zhè fèn shí lì ， zhè fèn qì dù ， jiù zhí de dà jiā bā jié tǎo hǎo le 。
且不说林轩已是仙道盟盟主，光是这份实力，这份气度，就值得大家巴结讨好了。
"Junior Lin, come, I'll raise a toast to you!"
yǔ zhè yàng de qiáng zhě jié yī fèn shàn yuán ， zài jiē xià lái de xiū xíng zhī lù shàng ， jiāng huì yǒu wú jǐn de hǎo chù ， zhè dào lǐ rén rén qīng chǔ 。
与这样的强者结一份善缘，在接下来的修行之路上，将会有无尽的好处，这道理人人清楚。
A young man named Long approached with a joyful expression, already slightly tipsy.
sī zhú zhī shēng chuán rù ěr duǒ ， zhòng shì nǚ zài piān piān qǐ wǔ de tóng shí 。 yǐ bǎi shàng le liú shuǐ yàn xí 。
丝竹之声传入耳朵，众侍女在翩翩起舞的同时。已摆上了流水宴席。
"I dare not. Thank you, Senior Brother."
gè zhǒng měi wèi zhēn xiū bù yī ér zú ， suī rán zài chǎng de xiū shì měi yí gè dōu kě bì gǔ ， dàn zài zhè dà xǐ de shí kè ， dāng rán yào hǎo hǎo chī shàng yī dùn de 。
各种美味珍馐不一而足，虽然在场的修士每一个都可辟谷，但在这大喜的时刻，当然要好好吃上一顿的。
Lin Xuan accepted the wine cup. He had always held his fellow disciple in high regard, not because of their strength but due to the deep bond formed over millennia.
jiù suàn bù xǐ huān měi wèi de shí wù ， xí yàn shàng yì yǒu yī xiē líng jiǔ guā guǒ 。
就算不喜欢美味的食物，席宴上亦有一些灵酒瓜果。
Lin Xuan drank it all in one go!
fú yòng zhī hòu duì yú zēng jìn xiū wèi ， huò duō huò shǎo yǒu yī xiē hǎo chù 。
服用之后对于增进修为，或多或少有一些好处。
...
zhè jī huì qiān zài nán dé ， dà jiā zì rán bú huì fàng guò 。
这机会千载难得，大家自然不会放过。
Thus, the celebration was filled with joy and laughter. However, Lin Xuan felt something was missing.
yī shí jiān tuī bēi huàn zhǎn ， zhěng gè yàn xí shàng xiǎn de shì rè nào fēi fán 。
一时间推杯换盏，整个宴席上显得是热闹非凡。
His gaze fell on Dong Yu Celestial Emperor. An idea struck him.
“ lín shī dì ， lái ， wǒ jìng nǐ yī bēi ！”
“林师弟，来，我敬你一杯！”
He suddenly enveloped himself in a green glow and soared towards the sky, his body glowing like jade. This action naturally drew everyone's attention, making the previously lively square fall silent.
lóng xìng shào nián lái dào miàn qián 。 liǎn shàng xǐ dòng yán sè ， yǐ shì hē dé wēi xūn le 。
龙姓少年来到面前。脸上喜动颜色，已是喝得微醺了。
"Friends of Dao, we have gathered here to elect the Grandmaster of the Immortal Dao Alliance and combat the域外天魔. How can we defeat those celestial fiends?"
“ bù gǎn ， duō xiè shī gē 。”
“不敢，多谢师哥。”
Lin Xuan’s voice echoed through the square, clearly heard by every cultivator.
lín xuān jiāng jiǔ bēi jiē guò ， duì yú zhè wèi tóng mén ， tā yí xiàng shì xīn zhōng jìng fú ， zhè yǔ shí lì méi yǒu guān xì ， ér shì zài qiān zài de suì yuè lǐ ， shuāng fāng jié xià le shēn hòu de tóng mén zhī yì 。
林轩将酒杯接过，对于这位同门，他一向是心中敬服，这与实力没有关系，而是在千载的岁月里，双方结下了深厚的同门之谊。
"We await your instructions."
lín xuān yī yǐn ér jǐn ！
林轩一饮而尽！
"One thing is unity; the other is enhancing our strength. Therefore, I suggest that while so many of you are here, let us hold a trade fair to exchange and benefit from each other's resources."
……
……
"An excellent suggestion, Grandmaster!"
jiù zhè yàng ， zhěng gè qìng diǎn huān lè yǐ jí 。
就这样，整个庆典欢乐以极。
"Moi also agrees. It’s as if we thought of it together."
rán ér lín xuān zǒng shì gǎn jué 。 shǎo le yì diǎn shén me tiáo jì 。
然而林轩总是感觉。少了一点什么调剂。
...
mù guāng zài dōng yù xiān huáng shēn shàng sǎo guò ， lín xuān jì shàng xīn lái le 。
目光在东裕仙皇身上扫过，林轩计上心来了。
The cultivators present agreed unanimously.
yú shì tā hún shēn qīng máng yì qǐ ， fēi xiàng le tiān jì ， hún shēn shàng xià qīng guāng liú lí 。 lín xuān rú cǐ jǔ cuò ， zì rán ràng zài chǎng de xiū shì chēng mù jié shé ， xī yǐn le suǒ yǒu xiū shì de guān zhù 。
于是他浑身青芒一起，飞向了天际，浑身上下青光琉璃。林轩如此举措，自然让在场的修士瞠目结舌，吸引了所有修士的关注。
A trade fair was held, exchanging materials and treasures that were no longer needed for those in demand. It was a win-win situation for everyone.
yuán běn rè nào de guǎng chǎng ， dùn shí ān jìng xià lái le 。
原本热闹的广场，顿时安静下来了。
No one could refuse such an offer.
“ gè wèi dào yǒu 。 wǒ men qí jù cǐ chù ， shì wèi le tuī jǔ xiān dào méng méng zhǔ ， gèng shì wèi le duì kàng yù wài tiān mó 。 kě yào zěn yàng cái néng duì fù dé le nà xiē tiān wài mó tóu ne ？”
“各位道友。我们齐聚此处，是为了推举仙道盟盟主，更是为了对抗域外天魔。可要怎样才能对付得了那些天外魔头呢？”
Thus, the trade began. Without much preparation, they chatted while eating, swapping items of little use.
lín xuān de shēng yīn zài guǎng chǎng shàng chuán kāi ， qīng xī de luò rù le měi yī míng xiū shì de ěr duǒ lǐ miàn 。
林轩的声音在广场上传开，清晰的落入了每一名修士的耳朵里面。
Soon, several transactions took place, to the delight of all present. The atmosphere became even more lively.
“ hái qǐng méng zhǔ fēn fù 。”
“还请盟主吩咐。”
"This Junior Lin is truly cunning."
“ yī shì yào tuán jié ， zhè dì èr me ， zé shì yào tí gāo wǒ men běn shēn de shí lì ， suǒ yǐ lín mǒu jiàn yì ， chèn zhe zhè me duō dào yǒu qí jù yú zhè lǐ ， bù rú wǒ men hù tōng yǒu wú ， jǔ bàn yí gè jiāo yì huì rú hé ？”
“一是要团结，这第二么，则是要提高我们本身的实力，所以林某建议，趁着这么多道友齐聚于这里，不如我们互通有无，举办一个交易会如何？”
Celestial Emperor Dong Yu sighed inwardly. A simple suggestion about a trade fair had already won over many hearts. His methods were indeed impressive.
“ méng zhǔ gāo jiàn ！”
“盟主高见！”
"How so, Your Majesty still harbors dissatisfaction?" Beside him was a beautiful woman dressed in court attire.
” mò mǒu yě zhèng yǒu cǐ yì ， méi xiǎng dào yǔ méng zhǔ xiǎng dào le yī kuài ér qù 。”
”墨某也正有此意，没想到与盟主想到了一块儿去。”
"Of course not, I merely expressed my feelings," Celestial Emperor Dong Yu replied as he noticed Lin Xuan approaching.
……
……
The couple bowed to Lin Xuan.
zài chǎng de xiū shì tīng le ， zì wú bù yǔn de dào lǐ 。
在场的修士听了，自无不允的道理。
"There is no need for such formalities. I have come with something to request."
jiāo huàn huì ， hù tōng yǒu wú ， jiāng yòng bú dào de cái liào fǎ bǎo jiāo huàn chū qù ， huàn huí suǒ xū ， zhè duì měi yí gè rén ér yán ， dōu shì qiú zhī bù dé dì 。
交换会，互通有无，将用不到的材料法宝交换出去，换回所需，这对每一个人而言，都是求之不得地。
Lin Xuan spoke politely.
lì rén yòu lì jǐ ， shǎ guā cái bù dā yìng zhè yàng de tí yì 。
利人又利己，傻瓜才不答应这样的提议。
"Why should you say that? With your status, there’s no need for a humble request; it would be disrespectful," Celestial Emperor Dong Yu replied modestly, though he knew Lin Xuan was young yet exceptionally powerful: "Just give me the order."
yú shì ， jiāo huàn huì kāi shǐ 。
于是，交换会开始。
"Fine, let's get straight to the point. Do you remember when we first met? You generously offered me a cup of Nine Holy Spirit Wine..."
yě bù yòng tè bié de zhǔn bèi 。
也不用特别的准备。
At this, both the couple turned slightly red. They had given him that wine with ill intentions, hoping it would end his life.
dà jiā biān chī biān liáo ， shùn biàn jiāo huàn yòng bú dào de cái liào fǎ bǎo 。
大家边吃边聊，顺便交换用不到的材料法宝。
Unfortunately for them, they had underestimated Lin Xuan’s resilience.
hěn kuài jiù yǒu shù rén chéng jiāo ， jiē dà huān xǐ ， xiàn chǎng de qì fēn ， gèng jiā xiǎn de rè nào yǐ jí 。
很快就有数人成交，皆大欢喜，现场的气氛，更加显得热闹以极。
Could he be planning to settle old scores now?
“ zhè lín xiǎo zi hái zhēn shì gōng yú xīn jì 。”
“这林小子还真是工于心计。”
The couple raised their guard as Lin Xuan continued: "This Nine Holy Spirit Wine is indeed remarkable and of some use to me. Would you consider parting with it?"
dōng yù xiān huáng àn àn tàn xī ， zhǐ shì xiǎo xiǎo de yí gè guān yú jiāo huàn huì de tí yì ， jiù kě yǐ chéng gōng shōu mǎi dào bù shǎo rén xīn ， shǒu duàn dàng zhēn gāo míng 。
东裕仙皇暗暗叹息，只是小小的一个关于交换会的提议，就可以成功收买到不少人心，手段当真高明。
"..."
“ zěn me ， bì xià hái xīn yǒu bù gān ？” tā de páng biān ， gēn zhe yī zuò gōng zhuāng dǎ bàn de měi rén 。
“怎么，陛下还心有不甘？”他的旁边，跟着一做宫装打扮的美人。
Celestial Emperor Dong Yu was taken aback, realizing that Lin Xuan had been leading him on for a while just to ask for the Nine Holy Spirit Wine.
“ dāng rán bú shì ， běn huáng zhǐ shì yǒu gǎn ér fā ér yǐ 。”
“当然不是，本皇只是有感而发而已。”
He hesitated deeply. While ordinary people would die from this wine, it was made from nine true spirits and thus extremely precious. It wouldn’t be easy to part with such an item.
dōng yù xiān huáng huà yīn wèi luò ， què mù guāng yī níng ， lín xuān jū rán zǒu xiàng le zì jǐ 。
东裕仙皇话音未落，却目光一凝，林轩居然走向了自己。
However, Lin Xuan’s tone was polite but insistent. He had just become Grandmaster; offending him might not be wise. What should he do?
“ méng zhǔ ！”
“盟主！”
Celestial Emperor Dong Yu found himself in a dilemma.
fū fù liǎ duì zhe lín xuān yī fú 。
夫妇俩对着林轩一福。
Meanwhile, Lin Xuan’s gentle voice continued: "I believe there is some misunderstanding. I know the Nine Holy Spirit Wine is valuable, so how could I ask for it without reason? As Grandmaster, I have already stated that we will exchange items at this trade fair. I will bring other treasures to swap with you."
“ xián kàng lì bù bì duō lǐ ， lín mǒu lái cǐ ， shì yǒu shì xiāng qiú dì 。”
“贤伉俪不必多礼，林某来此，是有事相求地。”
"I understand your generosity, but my Nine Holy Spirit Wine is a celestial item and cannot be exchanged for ordinary treasures," Celestial Emperor Dong Yu said hesitantly.
lín xuān yán cí zhī jiān ， shí fēn kè qì 。
林轩言辞之间，十分客气。
"Rest assured, Your Majesty, I won’t take anything by force. The items I offer will surely satisfy you." Lin Xuan smiled reassuringly.
Moreover, the sound of thundering voices reached his ears. In front of the square, a throne had unexpectedly risen on an elevated jade platform, adorned with dragons and phoenixes, exuding a refined aura!
It was clear that this throne was prepared for the Grandmaster.
Beside the throne stood a team of strongmen.
Each one was bald and barefoot, yet their bodies were incredibly robust. They did not emit any spiritual pressure, but they radiated an imposing presence.
Physical Cultivators!
"Please have a seat as Grandmaster!"
Someone in the crowd shouted out joyfully.
The voices soon became more frequent.
Having defeated Wan Xiao Xianjun, treating Black Bear King as his servant, and making a name for himself in the cultivation world, Lin Xuan's reputation had reached unprecedented heights. It was only fitting that he be appointed as the Grandmaster of the Immortal Dao Alliance.
A smile finally appeared on Lin Xuan’s lips, even if he did not care much about it, this scene still brought him a sense of accomplishment.
